Canada is different from the US in that there are still sectors of the economy in which men can play a traditional role - like the energy sector (and I'm not talking just about the tar sands, but natural gas and other energy sources.)
I think ethnic women tend to be pretty risk-averse when it comes to their career choices. Many end up in health care or education, which can lead to a relatively safe middle class lifestyle (they probably peak in the low 6-figures), but how many are in the boardroom closing deals? How many are partners in law firms?
